Religious Views
  • I don’t believe, but I don’t deny other’s need for hope and community. What ever it takes to make it through, but not forget the humanity of others is fine, but to say your better because… Well, never mind.

Political Views
  • Since the Democratic Party has ceased to care about the economically distressed, I am having to register to something less Republican.
